Classes of prime numbers

Quartan prime

In mathematics, a quartan prime is a prime number of the form x4 + y4 where x and y are positive integers. The odd quartan primes are of the form 16n + 1. For example, 17 is the smallest odd quartan prime: 14 + 24 = 1 + 16 = 17. With the exception of 2 (x = y = 1), one of x and y will be odd, and the other will be even. If both are odd or even, the resulting integer will be even, and 2 is the only even prime. The first few quartan primes are 2, 17, 97, 257, 337, 641, 881, … (sequence in the OEIS). (Wikipedia).

Quaternions EXPLAINED Briefly

This is a video I have been wanting to make for some time, in which I discuss what the quaternions are, as mathematical objects, and how we do calculations with them. In particular, we will see how the fundamental equation of the quaternions i^2=j^2=k^2=ijk=-1 easily generates the rule for

Quaternions as 4x4 Matrices - Connections to Linear Algebra

In math, it's usually possible to view an object or concept from many different (but equivalent) angles. In this video, we will see that the quaternions may be viewed as 4x4 real-valued matrices of a special form. What is interesting here is that if you know how to multiply matrices, you a

Geometric Algebra - Rotors and Quaternions

In this video, we will take note of the even subalgebra of G(3), see that it is isomorphic to the quaternions and, in particular, the set of rotors, themselves in the even subalgebra, correspond to the set of unit quaternions. This brings the entire subject of quaternions under the heading

Example of Quaternions

Matrix Theory: For the quaternion alpha = 1 - i + j - k, find the norm N(alpha) and alpha^{-1}. Then write alpha as a product of a length and a direction.

Coordinate Method

In this video, I use the coordinate method or Chain Rule method to solve a PDE. It is based on defining clever coordinates and using the Chain Rule to turn the PDE into one that's much easier to solve. Enjoy! Check out my PDE Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJb1qAQIrmmDo
